Future-proofing children and young people's nursing: our people, our practice, our planet.
Join us for ACCYPN Conference 2026, a forward-focused event exploring the future of children and young people’s health and the vital role nursing plays in shaping healthier lives. This conference will examine how our people, our practice, and our planet intersect to influence wellbeing across childhood and adolescence—now and into the future.
Proudly sponsored by the Department of Nursing at the Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH), the conference will be held at the RCH Health Education and Learning Precinct, bringing together nurses, leaders, educators, and researchers to share insight, innovation, and impact.
